Narrative

EE was cleaning the screen at the end of the day. EE had just entered the feeder box through the access door to clean the material stuck on the sides of the feeder box. As EE entered, EE knocked EE's hard hat off EE's head and at the same time a piece of rock stuck to the side of the feeder box fell and struck EE on top of the head. This caused a laceration on top of EE's head.
